The recognition comes from the American Public Power Association (APPA), a trade group that represents more than 2,000 not-for-profit, community-owned electric utilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The APPA helps electric utilities track power outage and restoration data through its subscription-based eReliability Tracker service. Once per year, APPA\u2019s Reliability Team compares this data to national statistics tracked by the U.S. Energy Information Administration for all types of electric utilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOnce again, public power utilities have demonstrated their commitment to providing highly reliable power to their customers,\u201d said Alex Hofmann, APPA\u2019s Vice President of Technical and Operations Services. \u201cWe commend these utilities for their hard work when it comes to keeping the lights on in their communities.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe are proud to receive this recognition. It is a testament to the hard work of all our staff to ensure that we keep the NBU service territory powered. When you consider that only 199 utilities received this national recognition for electric reliability, you can begin to understand NBU\u2019s commitment to its customers,\u201d said Melissa Krause, chief strategic communications and security officer. One of the most significant contributions to these statistics is NBU\u2019s tree-trimming program, which has significantly reduced outages caused by falling limbs or other tree-related incidences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information on NBU and its commitment to reliability, visit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbutexas.com\/\">nbutexas.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><center>###<\/center><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><sup><strong>About New Braunfels Utilities:<\/strong><em><br>Dedicated to excellence in service, New Braunfels Utilities (NBU) was established in 1942 and is one of 2,000 community-owned, nonprofit public power electric utilities in the nation.
